dc.description.abstract | The study on Designer’s khadi kurtis for young adults was carried out during 2010-12 at Hubli-Dharwad corporation area with the objectives to find out the different styles of kurtis available in the market; to explore the possibilities of designing, product development and value addition of khadi kurtis for young adults and to know the acceptance and cost of production of designed khadi kurtis. The methodology involved survey and experimental procedures. Both traditional and professional college young adults were interviewed to collect the information on the different type of readymade garments, fibre content, styles of kurtis, value addition and kurti brands preferred by the young adults. On the basis of survey results, 50 styles of kurtis were designed for young adults by forecasting, mood board preparation, illustration, swatch and colour board, out of which 10 styles were selected for further construction (5 each for khadi cotton and khadi silk). Exhibition and fashion show was organized to know the acceptance for the khadi kurtis by young adults and textile experts. Both young adults and textile experts opined as excellent with respect to the concept of sweat pads and overall appearance of designer’s khadi kurtis. However, roll-up sleeve kurti and pleated yoke kurti were most accepted and preferred among khadi cotton kurti and shirring kurti among khadi silk kurtis. Most of the respondents opined all khadi silk kurtis as expensive and khadi cotton kurtis to be reasonable and affordable by all type of consumers. This study is further helpful in designing khadi kurtis for different age groups, region, religion, season, gender and special groups applying combination of elements and principles of design. | en_US |
